For many years, the focus in IT has been on building robust systems that invested heavily in avoiding failures. To accomplish this goal, methodical processes were implemented to guide IT through a list of known use cases so that systems could try to avoid failing and have a plan for recovery if a failure did occur. This approach often led to long delivery cycles and a high degree of complexity which in reality, increased the risk of failure and created fragile systems. Fragile systems are those systems that cannot adapt to unpredictable, volatile, and random events often referred to as “shocks to the system”.
